Jerri Bolton (BEd '69) always knew she wanted to be a teacher and credits her University of Lethbridge education with helping her reach her goal.

"My education gave me the skills and the training I needed to be successful in a field I was passionate about," says Jerri, who taught locally for a few years before opening a private pre-school in Lethbridge. "My career was incredibly rewarding and it wouldn't have been possible without the experience I had at the U of L."

As an alumna of the Faculty of Education's first graduating class, Jerri has watched the University grow since her time as a student.

"I'm proud of what the University has accomplished already and I want to help grow its reputation and reach in the years to come. That's why I give to the University of Lethbridge."
